You can change your site main language via Settings -> General -> Site Language
Theme language files are located in a ../wp-content/themes/theme-folder/languages/ folder.
There are several ways to fill up translations:
- It’s easy to localize your site using plugin. Here you can see the tutorial – .
- Besides this, you can use a platform. You can add translation via editing your .po file and at the end, PoEdit generates .mo file for you. Then you can upload ready translation files to primordial folder (../wp-content/themes/theme-folder/languages/). Before adding translations for static strings it needs to rename language files correctly according to your site languages. You can find a list of language codes at . As an example, the language code for French is fr_FR, so you would save the translated files as fr_FR.po first, then fr_FR.mo.
In order to safe your translations during theme updates, we recommend to save them in ../wp-content/languages/themes/ folder.
